Multi-award winning Mari Hannah is the author of the Kate Daniels series of police procedurals, the Ryan and O'Neil crime series and the Stone and Oliver series. Her latest book in the Kate Daniels series, Without a Trace, is out now and won Capital Crime Book of the Year in 2020.

We had a great chat with Mari, hearing about how she moved into writing and her path to publishing - a tale which includes her first novel being dropped at the last moment by a small local publisher. That turned out to be the best thing ever though, as it allowed her to land a great agent and secure a publishing deal with Pan MacMillan that started her hugely successful career. We also hear about what she has planned next, and hear about how Kate Daniels will be brought to TV by Stephen Fry's production company!
